Week 3 Gameday Thread

[KillerKat]

If that hit was on a lineman, no one would be fussing.

Nope cause it's against the rules to make a come from behind block.

[KillerKat]

Gotcha. Still, it's what you do, not why you do it. Sometimes the biggest offenders are the guys sticking up for a teammate.

I still don't think the refs should've tossed him for shoving Baker's facemask after he just nailed their QB.

[Car123]

Ah did he? Like I said I flipped through all games. Everytime I was watching Flacco looked Smitty's way.

Torrey 8 tgts S Smith 7

Flacco seems more comfortable with Smith though.

[Pepsi]

Smitty wouldnt have given half the effort that he is showing at the moment if he was still playing for the Panthers.

The dude is out there trying to prove that he can still play - which he clearly can.

 

That argument is complete bull and you know it. Smith has never taken a play or game off. He's always played every game with nothing about effort and heart. He's easily the most competitive player I've ever watched play the game. This is a complete nonsense argument that's being grasped on now that numbers are proving those who said Smith was done wrong. Smith has made comments after the season about wanting to retire, such as after the 2010 season, but he always came back and played with heart.

 

Keep clinging to narratives, because the numbers don't lie. Cutting Steve Smith was a huge mistake.

Maclin TD! Fantasy team sitting comfy after that

Look at his numbers last year with us. He was done here. The numbers don't lie right?

Look, we cut Steve Smith because the team doesn't like you and you specifically.

[Kakarot]

Glad to see Cousins fug up right there. I don't like RG3, but I don't wanna see dude lose his job.  Aside from that INT, Cousins has had a great game, though.

[Kakarot]

Too much dancing. Mccoy had the hole if he would've kept straight.

[KillerKat]

After watching Cousins, RG3 is done in Washington.

Yeah let's look at the numbers. He had almost 800 yards while missing two game (it looks like our old "vets" will be missing some games this year so there goes the Smith is a liability we need game day players). He also put up those numbers in an ultra conservative system that managed to place in the worst offenses by yards and explosive plays. Now let's go to our offensive philosophy which everyone apparently loves on this forum. Smith excelled in it making huge plays on 3rd and 4th down keeping us in the game. The "drops" everyone mentions were NORMAL for Smith and were NORMAL compared to other WR's in the league.

 

Narrative, stick with it.

[Cj72]

I like 89 and all but I don't think it was a mistake to cut him. It's a mighty big coincidence that in cams first game without him all the wrs were getting catches instead of 1 or 2

[Boltergeist]

Eagles take advantage of a Cousins pick to open up a 2 score lead

[Mol3m4n]

Nope cause it's against the rules to make a come from behind block.

I saw Baker hit Foles right in the numbers. It's not his fault Foles wasn't looking.
